How 24 Hour Flood Water Removal Works in Greenwood

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Insulation that cannot dry safely is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Shut off water and power only from safe dry locations, then keep people back.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

• Tell the insurer about any additional wet rooms
• Keep notes about contaminated water
• Keep the date and time the loss was discovered

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
